Unique static boat on the Trent

PeterRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a lovely time staying on the boat. Sharon was really helpful from start to finish. Everything was set up for our stay and we had a great time. This trip was myself, my brother, and my Dad, so two of us used the bedrooms and one of us slept on the sofa bed in the living room. There were ample blankets, cushions, and pillows for all three beds. The amount of space on the boat was great for us. I think three single people was the right amount for the boat, or four people if they were both couples. We entertained ourselves with food and drink on the picnic bench above the deck, and watching TV below deck. There was a strong WiFi signal and the streaming services on TV worked fine. Being on the Trent meant it was easy to go for a walk. We must have covered 8 miles on Saturday, along the River and into a couple of villages. All in all, we had a great time and would love to stay again on the future.

Dream holiday on a Sailboat

JohnRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Just returned from wonderful eight nights on Nicola’s boat. We spent two nights each in Amalfi, Capri, Katera, and Castellammare di Stabia. The last place (home port) due to weather and niece’s delay. Nicola planned itinerary after we provided some basic input. Nicola does a lot more than just take you safely from port to port on his spotless boat. He shares his extensive knowledge of Italian history and the Amalfi coast while viewing towns/ancient ruins from the boat. He also recommends top sights and restaurants in each port—several of which don’t show up in any guide books. All were top notch and usually less crowded than the “name” places. We especially enjoyed the opportunity to be in big name ports like Amalfi and Capri after the last ferry left at the end of each day. You can really appreciate the difference without the hordes of people. We felt so fortunate that we could go back to the boat, watch the sunset and go out to dinner. Best trip ever—Book it!!!

Bob's Place Uncle

DanaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a great stay aboard Bob’s Yer Uncle! Very well organized and well stocked with all the necessities, and super clear instructions on getting into the marina and marina washrooms/showers - which we used instead of the boat shower. Would recommend visitors bring their own water for drinking. We’re hoping to book again the next time we’re in St. Catharines!

Houseboat 'Jupiter' Amsterdam

MarkRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
What a fun experience! And what a terrific host! In a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. To say we got to stay on a houseboat in Amsterdam is always going to be a fun memory! But note, it is definitely a boat. You must be fully able bodied to access the boat and get around comfortably inside. The kitchen is suitable for snacks. And as with most European AirBnBs, bring your own bath products.

40’ SAILING YACHT-private marina/secure in slip/AC

TyraRating, 5 stars2 months ago
The sailboat was a wonderful place to spend our days. We could walk to the beach (maybe 8 minutes?) for sunrise, or enjoy it at the marina. Sunset was the other side of the boat, right over the Intercoastal. The marina is well protected with rocks- so there was very little swaying /rocking. We brought food for breakfasts and lunches, and enjoyed that on deck, and mostly ate out for dinner. There is some great local seafood/vegetarian options too. The aft (back of boat) bed is the roomier of the two and was VERY comfortable

The Jewel of the James

ChaimRating, 5 stars24 months ago
I had a brief but very enjoyable stay here. It's an excellent change of scenery without going far away. Ronald was a thoughtful host and good to chat with. He gave me the tour and suggestions about nearby spots to check out. This is definitely not a "quick in, quick out, instant book" kind of place, but chances are if you're looking at boat rentals that's not what you're after anyway, and I will say if you're looking for a peaceful, laid-back setting, it's here. Notes for others who might be considering this spot: 1. Nothing is exactly close by, which is kind of the point. Expect most destinations (grocery, bar, etc) to be 20+ minutes away. 2. If you're tall, watch your head! But you get used to it quickly. All in all, if you're looking for a boat experience, I recommend this one.

Unusual night on an 11m sailboat

KatharinaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Staying on the boat was a nice adventure. Thomas' welcome was also very friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, it was very windy during our stay, which made it a bit noisy at night for me as a landlubber. However, the children slept soundly. The location is fantastic. Which is why we spent the next day on the beach right on site. Always happy 😊

YvetteRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
If I could give 10 stars I would. Josip and his family were amazing host. Not only did he pick us up from the airport, he and his wife made breakfast every morning and drove us to the store to get provisions as well as drive us to the marina for the second leg of our trip. They were extremely nice people who you would never know were there unless you needed ANYTHING! I would recommend Their home to anyone looking to stay in the area. Not to mention the pool was amazing and you are steps from the Sea. It was perfect! Thanks you for the wonderful vacation!

Vintage Sailboat Retreat Minutes from Wine Country

This is my second time staying on a boat within the AirBnB universe, and again, it was awesome! We loved the friendly folks at the marina, the boat was super cozy and beautifully decorated, everything was safe and comfortable, and we wish we could have stayed longer. Tara's instructions were super helpful, and we were able to enjoy our sleepover onboard. Can't wait to go back -- thank you for everything!

Fascinating experience

AshleyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This was truly one of the most memorable and unique stays we’ve ever had! The boat was not only spotless and super comfortable, but also such a fun and relaxing place to unwind. Waking up on the water was amazing, and the marina itself is absolutely beautiful, surrounded by fantastic restaurants and the warmest, friendliest people. Our hosts went above and beyond to make us feel right at home. From the moment we arrived, they were so kind, welcoming, and genuinely thoughtful. They brought us a lovely breakfast in the morning and even stocked the fridge with a bunch of complimentary treats, such a sweet and generous touch. Communication was quick and clear from start to finish, which made everything easy and stress-free. We can’t recommend this experience enough. If you’re looking for something special, peaceful, and full of charm, this is it. We would come back in a heartbeat!

Funshine - Vacation on a 43' Gulfstar Yacht

TerriRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A new, fun and unique experience for both of us. Waking distance to historic Saint Augustine and SA Fish Camp. Very private and quiet and loved sitting outside on deck in the morning drinking our coffee. It was also very nice sitting out in the evenings watching the sun set. Chris was exceptionally responsive to every question we had about the boat and the area. I loved the fact coffee and bottled water were provided for us so we had no need to run to the store to purchase. Plenty of towels, shampoo, conditioner, body soap and toilet paper as well.

What a great little spot to get out of town and do something different! Our host communication was absolutely top-notch and we appreciate it very much There’s not much to do around town, but that’s kind of the idea right? We did get to Carson‘s on the creek which was a nice little spot. Everyone at the Marina was very friendly and we appreciated our stay very much

Cosy narrowboat stay in the ♥ of Hebden Bridge

Wonderful stay for 2 relaxing nights, the boat had everything we needed and was in a great position for Hebden Bridge very quirky, comfortable, and lovely canal side walks. Loved seeing the geese and ducks on the water. 10 minute walk up the bank and there was an enclosed dog field we booked which was useful for a free run. Although on the hillside. The area was stunning with pretty views and old world charm. Lots of independent businesses. Thanks so much for the hospitality we enjoyed it so much.

Houseboat docked by 4th of July fireworks bridge

DanniellRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a great stay on this houseboat in Knoxville! The host was incredibly responsive and provided lots of helpful information before and during our visit. The location couldn't have been better — close to the city but tucked away at the end of the dock, offering a beautiful, unobstructed view of the water. The boat itself had a lot of charm, though it did show some signs of age. There were a few soft spots on the floor that we were mindful of, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience. The inflatable hot tub was a fantastic touch and made for a relaxing evening with the perfect view. All in all, it was a unique and enjoyable stay — definitely worth it if you're looking for something a little different!
